Abstract
the theme "Legitimacy of state power" refers to the concept of a government or governing authority having the rightful and justified authority to exercise power over a particular territory, population, and resources. It focuses on the question of whether a state possesses the moral and legal right to govern and make decisions on behalf of its citizens.
